Just got my hands on a really good Smith-Corona Model 03-A3. Came to me as a bag-o-gun project and worked out to be a really good deal. I have assembled the rifle and shot it yesterday. Shoots good with a 1 1/2" group at 50 yds. ( all the room I had at the time). No key holes either. The hand guard is cracked and it is missing the middle sling swivel and butt swivel. I would like to replace these parts but I have found that these parts are hard to find. I need some sources for these parts if anyone knows where I might look. Thanks in advance.

This guy in eBay seems to have a decent deal on '03A3 handguards;

In general, most Smith-Corona small parts are unmarked, "R" marked/stamped parts are Remington.
